'They're scum': President Trump speaks out following NATO summit in Turkey; aims comments at Iran

President Donald Trump said the U.S. is prepared to "just finish the job" in Iran as he defended renewed U.S. military strikes, as well as vowing that Tehran will never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. "Let's just finish the job," Trump said during a news conference on Wednesday, while praising his administration's military campaign as "a tremendous success." Trump also described Iran as "the bully of the Middle East" and said he believes he remains the country's top target. "I'm number one on their kill list," Trump said. "They're scum." The president accused Iran of acting in bad faith by attacking commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz despite expressing interest in diplomacy. "They want to make a deal and then they go around shooting ships at night," Trump said, describing Iran's leaders as "a little loco" and "a little crazy." "You can't let lunatics have nuclear weapons," he added. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Iowa's News Now on our social media pages: Iowa’s News Now on Facebook:   / iowasnewsnow   Iowa’s News Now on Twitter:   / iowasnewsnow   For more news & weather: https://cbs2iowa.com/ Send us news tips @ [email protected] #iowanewsnow #iowanews #localnews #KGAN #news
